Chapter 51: Who is the Cat? Who is a mouse?
Zhang Guoyan - a native of Handan, Jiajing was born in the 41st year of Jinshi, and was first awarded the magistrate of Xiangling County, Shanxi. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info due to his outstanding political achievements, he was repeatedly promoted, and he served as the governor of Jiliao with the post of imperial envoy of the right capital. Set up a backpack military horse, used to transmit military information, and can be regarded as a capable minister who knows the soldiers and is good at fighting. Zhang Guoyan looked at the arrogant soldiers under his tent, although he thought that he had a strategy to retreat from the enemy, he still asked out of custom: "Your army is barbaric and leads a large number of troops to press the border, and you have been sending troops to attack everywhere in the past few days, I don't know if you have a good strategy to retreat from the enemy." ”
Among the generals, Du Tong and Li Rusong are respected by the two general soldiers, who knows that before the two of them can speak, they saw a young man with a dark face preemptively speaking: "Now that I have gathered strong soldiers in Jizhou Town, it is better to send troops out to find a decisive battle for Mengnu, I am willing to open the way for the vanguard for the army, and I will be able to defeat the Tartars in one fell swoop!" After that, he looked at Du Tong excitedly.
The person who spoke was none other than Du Tong's brother, Juniper who was known as 'Du Heizi'.
In the early years of Du Tong Wanli, he was tired of guarding the Qingshui Battalion, and he accumulated merit step by step to the post of chief military officer, and has always been known for his bravery. Seeing that his younger brother's plan was too hasty, after glaring at Du Tong, he turned his gaze to Zhang Guoyan and said, "Brother Wai is young and speaks lightly, and I hope that Governor Zhang will not be surprised." The movement of the main force of the Tartars in this battle is unknown, and we still strictly guard the passes everywhere, and wait for the main movement of the Tartars to be clear before making a move. ”
When Zhang Guoyan heard this, he nodded slightly and did not speak, turning his gaze to Li Rusong.
In addition to Li Rusong, the general soldier of Xuanfu Town, Li Rubai, the second son of Li Chengliang, the general of Jizhou Town, and Li Ruzhang, the fourth son of Xuanfu Town, all have a strong army. Coupled with Li Chengcai, the deputy chief soldier of Jizhou Town, and Zu Chengxun, the deputy chief soldier of Liaodong who came to reinforce, both the strength and combat power are the first of all walks of life. Although Zhang Guoyan is the governor, he has to rely on the Li family.
Li Rusong, who is nearly forty years old, stroked his beard and said: "Jizhou Town, together with the subordinate three towns of Yongping, Changping and Miyun, is divided into three districts and 12 roads to garrison. The side wall starts from Shanhaiguan in the east, reaches Juyong Pass in the west, with a total length of nearly 2,000 miles, thousands of enemy platforms, and more than 190 large and small passes. Shanhaiguan in the east. Xifengkou and Panjiakou in the middle, Gubeikou and Juyongguan in the west are all battleground for soldiers, and it is difficult for us to hold on to them one by one no matter how many soldiers and horses we have. ”
Seeing that his brother's words were slightly cowardly, Li Rubai just wanted to speak. But he was stopped by Li Chengcai, so he heard his uncle whisper: "If Bai Xiu wants to say more, listen to Rusong." ”
Li Rubai knew that his uncle had been on the battlefield for a long time, so he must have seen something, and immediately swallowed back the words that had just come to his mouth.
At this time, I saw Li Rusong's ears move a few times. Suddenly, the tone of the conversation changed, and he raised his voice a few points and said: "It is inevitable to repeat the mistake of the 'Battle of Panjiakou' in the Jiajing period, and the last general proposed to spill out the night to reconnoiter the enemy's situation, and after finding the barbarian camp, send the elite cavalry out to guide the enemy camp directly. The power of the generals of Jiliao and Xuanda will definitely be able to win. ”
Li Chengcai watched Li Rusong grow up since he was a child, and as soon as his eldest nephew opened his mouth, he guessed that he had guessed seventy or eighty percent, and quickly echoed: "The last general thinks that this plan is feasible." ”
"The end will be no different." Seeing his brother and uncle speak, Li Rubai and Li Ruzhang agreed one after another.
"The last general seconded." Zu Chengxun, the deputy chief soldier who led Liaodong Town to aid the generals, went out of the Li family together. Naturally, he stood on the side of the Li family's uncle and nephew.
Zhang Guoyan's original intention coincided with Du Tong, first divided his troops to stick to various important places, and after the Tartar soldiers were clear, he gathered soldiers and horses to repel them together. However, the battle of Panjiakou mentioned by Li Rusong made Zhang Guoyan suspicious.
In the battle of Panjiakou in the 38th year of Jiajing, Xilin'a, the leader of the Tatar department, adopted the strategy of attacking the east and the west. First divided the troops to feint and attack the two places of Yiyuankou and Lengkou in the east of Jizhen, and Wang Shu, the governor of Jiliao at the time, did not know what to do, so he easily transferred troops to the east. Taking advantage of the emptiness of the defenders in the middle of Jizhen, the Mongol army gathered the main force to break through Panjiakou. Then cross the Luan River to Santunying, and then go west to Zunhua, Fengrun, Yutian, Jizhou and other places.
After Wang Shu led his troops back to help, Xilin'a led his troops to avoid the front of the troops and harassed Qian'an and other places. After a few days of saturation, exit the side wall from Panjiakou. The Ming Dynasty lost money and food in this battle, and the government and the opposition were shaken. Wang Shu, the governor of Jiliao, was criticized to death by Yan Song's father and son, and during the Longqing period, his sons Wang Shizhen and Wang Shimao sued for injustice before they had to be reinstated.
The lessons of the previous car are vivid, and Zhang Guoyan has to guard against it. After thinking about it for a moment, I decided. According to Li Rusong's plan, Guangfu did not collect the night to probe the enemy's situation.
Before the enemy situation became clear, the deputy commander-in-chief Zu Chengxun led the reinforcements from Liaodong Town, stationed in the Jianchang camp, and cooperated with the Yongping troops to defend the Yanhe Battalion, Shimenzhai, Taitou Battalion, Shanhaiguan, and the Fourth Road in the Eastern District.
Du Tong, the chief soldier of Jizhou Town, led the people of the town and stationed in the Santun camp to help the Jizhou soldiers defend Taipingzhai, Xifengkou, Songpeng Valley, Malanguan, and the four roads in the central area.
Li Rusong unified the Xuanda reinforcements stationed in the Shiqiao camp, and prepared a defense wall with Changping on the wall, Gubeikou, Huanghua Town, Juyongguan, and the fourth road in the west area.
In order to prevent the Tartars from repeating their old tricks, it is agreed that no police in any district shall come to the aid without authorization. At the same time, each of the three of them dispatched a battalion of soldiers and horses, and stationed in Zunhua with Zhang Guoyan, specializing in galloping to various places.
Once the location of the barbarian camp was discovered, several soldiers sent together to destroy the enemy. After all the generals were the same, they ordered everyone to go back to the camp to prepare. Zhang Guoyan convened the governors of Shuntian and Baoding to discuss the allocation of grain and grass.
The uncles and nephews of the Li family are stationed in various towns on weekdays, and they gather here today to gather more and less, so they can't help but have to say hello.
As soon as he found a restaurant and sat down, Li Rusong took the lead in speaking: "I heard a noise behind me in front of Rubai, do you want to interject again, I haven't seen your kid's ability rise for a few years!" ”
Li Rusong has been accumulating prestige among his brothers for the eldest son in the family for a long time, Li Rubai was stunned at first, worried that his brother would blame, and hurriedly gave Li Chengcai a look, and explained with a hippie smile: "Big brother, where do you want to go, I heard our uncle say that after a lot of hardships, I finally found Chenglong's fast son-in-law, and when I said hello to him, the movement was a little bigger, your ears are so good that you can hear this." ”
"The blind cat bumped into a dead mouse, and someone wanted the tigress Ruliu!" When Li Ruzhang heard this, he took the lead in shouting.
"What is the hardship of Rubai? Ruzhang, you kid is even more excessive, who is a cat and who is a mouse, I think you two didn't let the dog bite enough, right? Li Chengcai said with a displeased face.
"Bang dang!" Li Ruzhang heard Li Chengcai mention that Li Ruliu let the dog bite people, which evoked the painful memories of being chased and bitten by his sister in his childhood, and he was so frightened that he threw the chopsticks in his hand aside and covered his crotch with both hands.
"Hahaha!" Li Rusong laughed when he saw this, looked at the embarrassed fourth brother Li Ruzhang and said: "Ruzhang, you are so old, you haven't forgotten the fact that you were chased and bitten by our sister's dog." At this time, after picking up the wine glass and toasting Li Chengcai, he said with a smile: "Uncle, I will make amends for these two boys, don't be angry." But then again, Ruliu Meizi is known as the 'Tenth Tiger of the Li Family', what kind of divine can win his heart? ”
